Why We Like The Cervelo Caledonia 5 Red eTap AXS Road Bike
With clean aesthetics, advanced materials, and top-tier electronic shifting, Cervelo’s Caledonia 5 Red eTap AXS Road Bike is a top choice for long-distance adventures where a blend of speed and comfort is preferred. The premium carbon fiber construction creates a frame that is lightweight, stiff, and responsive to ensure an optimal power transfer, while the tapered carbon fork helps absorb vibrations and bumps from the changing terrain we ride over to keep us comfortable and unfatigued during our 100+ mile ride. The long-distance optimized geometry features a sleek and modern-looking aerodynamic profile that reduces drag and improves riding efficiency while keeping us in a comfortable position to keep us going for hours. With this Caledonia 5, we are equipped with the SRAM 2 x 12-speed Red eTap AXS drivetrain, providing exceptional shifting performance, effortless hydraulic braking, and comfortable ergonomic controls. This lightweight, high-performance electronic drivetrain features a 10-36t cassette and a 48/35t chainring combination that is easier than ever to shift between to find the perfect gear for any terrain with the AXS-enabled shift-brake system. There is even a power meter integrated into the SRAM Red AXS E1 crankset, providing us with important training data at a measurement accuracy of +/- 1.5%, even in variable temperatures. But no bike is complete without two wheels, and Cervelo built this Caledonia 5 with the Reserve 42|49 TA carbon wheelset to keep us rolling with speed, efficiency, and comfort.
